2014-01-30 "The STAP-cell has capability of making placenta"

Needless to say that "multipotential cell" is really terrific, however,

I also respect the person who discover a material the brings a specific cell from the "multipotential cell".

Though I am sorry that I don't have the paper, the detector seems to be also Japanese.

It is meaningless if we cannot change the multipotential cells into specific cells.

-----

Though I have studied ES-cells and iPS-cells about for two months and I think that I can say "I understand", surprise news is coming today.

"STAP-Cells"

I read that on the web site, and I was really surprised at the cell.

"Socking a cell into weakly acidic liquid solution -> completed"

I am about to say "Really!?"

But what I was really surprised is the following,

"The STAP-cell has capability of making placenta, differ from ES, iPS cells"

"Placenta! Really? Really and really? I have never heard such terrific news for one year. It is not "multipotential cell" but "master-cell"

I am going to say "have you completed submitting a patent application, haven't you?”

For the best of my knowledge, this is big impressive news since the news of high-speed neutrino.

Unfortunately, the news also let me down because I am afraid that I cannot complete the study of the STAP-cell by the next release.

-----

Anyway, I was surprised at ES-cell and astonished at iPS-cell. And I was shaked at the STAP-cell.

I think the world give me an illusion time for two month in order to surprise me.


2015-01-30 I have no faculty to memorize of people's name.

I have no faculty to memorize of people's name.

My wife said "you are not interested in people", and I can agree with her.

-----

It would seem that I remember people as sharps of product, like

"Oh, she is a person of M2M gateway", "He is a person of digital LCX"

I could replace the faces with one of a device sharp.

-----

This is not inconvenience for me, at my office.

When I start the conversation with the following phases,

"According to M2M gateway, could you sell for them overseas?"

"About the bandwidth, is the band limit less than 4Mbps?"

I can break through such a critical situation.


2016-01-30 A younger researcher is trying to watch the earth image from the satellite in their PC display.

The old days, reporters of weather forecast made an irresponsible statement.

I can put the statement out immediately now.

"Fair, later, occasionally cloudy. Sudden shower or thundershower in some areas "

Everybody can understand that the above phrase is "zero information", so I don't need to introduce you the Channon's information theory,

(To tell you the truth, the phrase includes information of "no snow" or "no typhoon")

In fact, it is said that "weather forecast" is one of the most difficult problems.

Even there are a lot of climate monitoring points in Japan, and weather satellite from the satellites' orbits.

According to the calculation difficulty, both "battfly effect" are "weather forecast" is always argued at the same time.

-----

Recently I often come across some younger researchers in the office

who are trying to watch the earth image from the satellite in their PC display.

The day before yesterday, the younger checked the snow in Kanto area.

-----

Until it is the Meiji era, to establish a calendar and expect weather are the duties that it is important and are monopolistic of the government.

It was a kind of the authority of the power of the states.

Then staring at a real-time picture of the earth from a weather satellite and doing "a weather forecast" by oneself are perfect

"Revolution"

I think.

(To be continued)


2018-01-30 They should be called "superman" or "super woman" actually in fact?

As we get older - expect of some people - it seems that our performance can not be exerted as young.

For a long time, I thought it is for "a drop in intelligence due to aging".

Of course, it might be right, however recently I think that

"a drop in function due to aging"

-----

I have already told you that I had been a sight-defying defending champion, keeping sight 2.0 for nearly 40 years.

However, now I cannot read a book without mounting reading glasses, and I cannot watch a display of PC without removing reading glasses.

These actions of "mounting" and "removing" is going to lose a motivation to study.

In addition, recently, the unexplained pain continues around the base of both arms. Depending on the angle of the arm, I may feel a keen pain that I have to hold my breath and cannot move for a while.

The action of "caring of my arm angle to push a PC's switch" lose a motivation to work.

(Incidentally, I also went to a special clinic (Pain Clinic) and underwent various examinations, but the result was diagnosed as "unknown cause", and now I am using an analgesic sheet everyday)

-----

The followings are just my hypothesis, however I come to think

(1) The speed of "degradation of function due to aging" is fearfully faster than of "decline of intelligence"

(2) That "degradation of function (*)" diminishes "motivation" to everything.

(*)In my case, that is with "pain" especially.

-----

Recently I have not seen young people at building sites and civil engineering sites.

Even young people who are not supposed to be Japanese are not seen sparsely.

Many people who work in the field seem to be 10 or 20 years older than I.

-----

Now I come to think whenever I see the persons, they should be called

"superman" or "super woman" actually in fact?

from the bottom of my heart with my respect and gratitude.


2019-01-30 "When I am killed by this company, I also will kill this company"

Today, new my column is released, so I take a day off.

Let's turn the world by "Number"(52) : Work style reform(11) "

How to form a black company

-----

Before writing this column, I wonder that

"Since the company's information is spreading rapidly in society such as SNS, most "black companies" are quickly disappearing when they are exposed to popularity"

doesn't come to realize.

On the contrary, the government (Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare) publishes the paper which describe black companies in Japan ( Correctly, "publication cases relating to labor standard-related law violations")

How to say, "I feel bad"

----

So this time I tried to check them. Speaking from conclusion, It seems to be the main cause that "Internal accusations of victims of black companies are not logically described"

No quantitative numerical value (overtime hours, overtime work, unpaid overtime payment etc)

No demonstration (recording, material)

Utmost to tell subjective impressions in abusive or vulgar expressions

This is just a "bad mouth" of black companies.

Moreover,

"When I am killed by this company, I also will kill this company"

I can not see the preparation like that.

I know well.

People like me who seem to come up with such thoughts are "strange".

----

The manager of the black company, like me, is a human who is hitting people and talking about love at the same time.

They are absolutely like me, insane, immoral, and the worst.

Do not to forget that the owner of company is the president(Shareholders are the sub criminal of black companies)

As long as the president keeps "worst", the company will continue to be "worst".

Do not think about stupid things like "change the company with our own power" (Incidentally, the more stupid boss says such a stupid remark).

If you have time to make such efforts, you should spend time on job change, entrepreneurship or planning the assassination of the president (aiming for complete crime).


2020-01-30 Otherwise, you will eventually be "killed by yourself."

It's not the project I wanted,

Someone let me a project leader

Suffering from delays everywhere,

Following up the mistakes of each department,

Making budget that is not accounted for,

Getting tired of working hard.

-----

Even if this project falls,

No big damage occurs.

Even if I know I won't be blamed,

Still, I will be overtaken to make something.

If you call this "anxiety", "anxiety" is the scariest, most painful and tragic disease.

-----

I've been telling others to run away.

However, some people cannot get peace of mind by running away.

It is me.

A person who can solve a problem only by solving the problem will not have peace of mind. I really get angry with my personality.

------

Every day, problems occur, my heart hurts,

Every day, problems are resolved, my heart relief,

This is similar to a change in the environment where we travel daily between Antarctica and the equator. My body and mind are surely going to be destroyed.

About this situation

If I continue for a week, I go crazy,

If I continue for a month, I will have depression

If I continue for three months, I will dive on the rails of the train

I have certain conviction.

------

"A person who can solve a problem only by solving the problem" should

always underestimate my abilities,

be modest to the humble (pretending)

push up others,

never in a responsible position

Otherwise, you will eventually be "killed by yourself."


2021-01-30 My senior daughter said that the most difficult thing for her when she is making deliveries is that there is no nameplate or she cannot read the nameplate.

My senior daughter is now working part-time as a delivery driver on a motorcycle.

I, too, was a motorcycle rider, but I have never done anything to earn an income from it.

When I was a student, I had a lot of indoor part-time jobs, such as cram school teaching and computer instructing.

Compared to that, I am impressed that my daughter is doing quite an activity part-time.

As a father, I'm worried about my daughter's motorcycle accident.

"Non-criminal activities are not/can't be stopped"

This is our family's (or rather my) policy.

I keep telling my daughter about my "lineup of motorcycle accidents in my past".

That aside.

-----

My senior daughter said that the most difficult thing for her when she is making deliveries is that there is no nameplate or she cannot read the nameplate.

Particularly -- and I don't know what's cooler -- unreadable crappy characters, horizontal letters in a typeface I've never seen before, and small letters.

Above all, she said, the most annoying thing is a nameplate without an address on it.

-----

To begin with, the nameplate is an identification sign that shows the name and residence of the owner of the real estate.

Anyone who trys to use nameplate that is only concerned with design without fulfilling its original function -- in my opinion

"Parents who disadvantage their own children's lives by giving them glittering names that nobody cannot call"

I feel the same level of ignorance of that.

As same as trademarks, the primary functions of both address and name are "identification of oneself and others (x products)" and "indication of origin" (x quality assurance function, x advertising function).

What are we going to do with nameplates and names that interfere with these functions?

-----

I've been saying this for a long time.

"Cancel the zip code system and include location information"

I have been asking for this system to be introduced (or, if possible, legislated).

So-called "35.646010403376586, 139.7767025657232".

If you put this number into a search engine, you can quickly identify the location and see how helpful it is to the delivery service people. The cost of delivery would go down dramatically.

With these coordinates, we can pinpoint not only the location of the warehouse, but also the location of the front door, and the possibility of wrong delivery can be reduced to near zero.

In Japan, the Quasi-Zenith Satellites can keep the error within one meter, and if RTK (Real Time Kinematic) can be used, the error will be a few centimeters.

(I haven't been following it lately, but I'm sure the method that uses the radio phase of GPS could be even more accurate.)

-----

Privacy?

The picture of your front door is being shown to the world, and a drone is passing by, circumventing your own home's air rights. In this day and age, what's the privacy?

-----

With a little effort, anyone can easily find out the location of their home.

If so, it would be better to publish "35.646010403376586, 139.7767025657232" and eat the "hot pizza" as soon as possible.

Anyway, for my daughter, I do say

"If your house can't even get a proper nameplate, don't use any delivery service.


2022-01-30 "A government agent (apparently that's me) contributing under the guise of an ordinary citizen"

There's a movie on Amazon Prime whose title is "Tokyo Nuclear Power Plant (*)" -- it's good. It's funny.

(*)This is a separate content from Mr.Hirose's book "Nuclear Power Plants in Tokyo".

Please watch it with a light heart.

If you want, you can listen to the audio alone, like a radio, and enjoy it fully.

Nevertheless, I was shocked to learn that this movie was produced in 2004.

It's as if the movie was made with a foreknowledge of what will happen in 2011.

-----

This is a sudden change of subject, but our family basically subscribes to the Yomiuri Shimbun.

I basically 'dislike' the tone of the Yomiuri Shimbun, but I continue to subscribe to it for one reason only: The articles are written in 'technical writing' style.

(Click here for a list of my biases against each newspaper in Japan)

Recently, the Yomiuri Shimbun has been annoying me with its articles on the "push" for nuclear power policy after the earthquake and nuclear accident, however I read the front page of the paper as I need to know the information.

"The ghosts of Monju are making a comeback, using "carbon neutrality" as an oddity, and their stories are popping up all the time"

From the bottom of my heart, I marvel at how immortal they (the nuclear interests) are in an absolute sense.

-----

By the way, I recently contributed columns recommending (or so it seems) the use of the COVID-19 vaccine.

And I've been reading about me (Ebata) on some forums.

"A government agent (apparently that's me) contributing under the guise of an ordinary citizen"

I laughed quite a bit when I saw it written (my wife and I were laughing hysterically).

To be honest, I would be happy to write anything if I could make a living as a "government agent" -- but the government has never approached me before.

Maybe this is the reason.

-----

If I were a "government agent,"

This column, or

This column

would have made me be fired in a heartbeat, I think. What do you think of that?


2023-01-30 Yesterday, I happened to "snag" a copy of "Kogawara Drama Ryoma ga Kuru" on NetFlix and was very surprised and impressed.

As I mentioned above, I have long wondered about "Sakamoto Ryoma's view of heroism" from an engineering approach. I thought that

"The story (interpretation) is too unreasonable"

-----

Yesterday, I happened to "snag" a copy of "Kogawara Drama Ryoma ga Kuru" on NetFlix and was very surprised and impressed.

Mr.Tetsuya Takeda, who appears in this drama, is an ardent Sakamoto Ryoma fan and has appeared in numerous Ryoma productions.

I was impressed by the fact that he appeared in the program "Making a drama about Sakamoto Ryoma together with 'a mediocre Sakamoto Ryoma who has done nothing' who has time leapt from the past.

I cannot know what kind of "view of Sakamoto Ryoma", Mr. Tetsuya Takeda has.

However, no matter what kind of "Sakamoto Ryoma" he has, I felt his pride of a professional in the way he created it as a work of art.


2024-01-30 Recently, I have been cutting off my hair with clippers, which my family has not received well -- I have told this story many times before.

Recently, I have been cutting off my hair with clippers, which my family has not received well -- I have told this story many times before.

The face of the man is bad enough, and when the round-cropped head is added to it, the evilness of the face (in appearance) is worse, it seems.

However, when my hair gets even a bit longer, it becomes depressing, and I find it hard to concentrate on my work or studies.

A 1,000-yen barbershop (although prices have increased recently) will give you a haircut in 10 minutes, but the wait time is usually three times that and can reach an hour or more if you are not careful.

This makes "short haircuts" meaningless.

-----

So, the other day, I cut off my hair with regular scissors.

The flow is as follows

(1) Prepare scissors

(2) Naked in the bathroom

(3) Cut hair while looking in the mirror (cut the back part while guessing)

(4) Collect hair in the bathroom by hand, put it in a plastic bag, and throw it in the trash.

(5) Shower the entire body.

the end

-----

The criterion was "whether or not my wife would find out about my self-hairdressing" -- and she quickly did.

He pointed out that 'the area around the ear is bald,' but that will automatically be restored if you hold off for a week.

To begin with, I only go out twice a week now (once at work and once at college, respectively), so I don't worry too much about it.

-----

My appearance is inversely proportional to my age, and I am getting "cheaper" by the minute.

A cheap digital watch, slacks purchased from Amazon, 100 yen reading glasses, and a self-haircut...

This proves that 'there are no situations in my life from now on that will appeal to me in appearance' (I think the only thing left is a re-employment interview after I retire).

-----

That is why, even if my hairdressing is strange, you don't have to tell me about it.

Thank you for your continued support.
